Young Man’s Blues
Mose Allison
[Verse 1]
Well a young man
Ain't got nothing in the world these days
I said a young man
Ain't got nothing in the world these days
You know in the old days
When a young man was a strong man
All the people stepped back
When a young man walked by
But you know nowadays
It's the old man
He's got all the money
And a young man
Ain't got nothing in the world these days
Ain't got nothing
[Verse 2]
In the old days
Everybody stepped back
When a young man walked by
They stepped back
They stepped back
They stepped back
Nowadays if you're the young man
You ain't got nothing in the world these days
Ain't got nothing
Ain't got nothing
Ain't got sweet fuckall
